Blessings

I am so thankful for the blessings I have received in my life. They are just too numerous to count or list. But, as they come I thank the Lord for them. This morning as I was driving from Seguin to Gonzales, I was thankful for my four girls. Today is the day God blessed us with our youngest, Caitlin, whom we call Caty or Cata. She and Liam drove in last evening and we had supper with them; she spent the night and drives back today to Houston. This weekend she will be meeting with her university as she is set to begin the final phase of her Nurse Practitioner degree.

How do you define and what do you do with blessings? I define a blessing as a gift from God. I could add a "special" gift, but all that God gives to us is special and so playing with words does not do justice to what a blessing is intended to do; make our life richer and our hearts thankful for God's thoughtfulness in our lives.

I invite you to say thank you to God for whatever blessing you're enjoying today.

I say again, Thank you God, for Caty and her blessing to us. May You share with her many more years!
